Biography
Jian Li received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical
engineering from The Ohio State University, Columbus, in 1987 and 1991,
respectively. She is currently with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering,
University of Florida, Gainesville, USA, and the Department of Electronic
Engineering and Information Sciences, University of Science and Technology of
China, Hefei. Her current research interests include spectral estimation,
statistical and array signal processing, and their applications to radar,
sonar, communications, and biomedical engineering. Dr. Li's publications
include Robust Adaptive Beamforming (2005, Wiley), Spectral Analysis: the Missing
Data Case (2005, Morgan & Claypool), MIMO Radar Signal Processing (2009,
Wiley), and Waveform Design for Active Sensing Systems -- A computational
approach (2011, Cambridge University Press).
Dr. Li is a Fellow of IEEE and a Fellow of IET. She is
also a Fellow of the European Academy of Sciences (Brussels). She received the
1994 National Science Foundation Young Investigator Award and the 1996 Office
of Naval Research Young Investigator Award. She was an Executive Committee
Member of the 2002 International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal
Processing, Orlando, Florida, May 2002. She was an Associate Editor of the IEEE
Transactions on Signal Processing from 1999 to 2005, an Associate Editor of the
IEEE Signal Processing Magazine from 2003 to 2005, and a member of the
Editorial Board of Signal Processing, a publication of the European Association
for Signal Processing (EURASIP), from 2005 to 2007. She was a member of the
Editorial Board of the IEEE Signal Processing Magazine from 2010 to 2012. She
is currently a member of the Sensor Array and Multichannel Technical Committee
of the IEEE Signal Processing Society. She is a co-author of the paper that has
received the M. Barry Carlton Award for the best paper published in IEEE
Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems in 2005. She is also a co-author
of a paper published in IEEE Transactions on Signal processing that has
received the Best Paper Award in 2013 from the IEEE Signal Processing Society.
